Yeah, I hate it when they catch birds, but I don't scold them for it. Like you say, they don't know the difference. Good Job on them catching the mole though. That must've been tough coz they would've had to've seen the dirt moving and dug him up before he could get away. They're so nasty looking too. I hate moles. They're all over the place in my yard and they've been digging under the gravel walkways I've had put down and you'll be walking along and the ground gives way under your foot. I've thought about getting some of those little harpoon-like mole traps to stick in the ground to get rid of them.

We have tried those little harpoon like traps and the moles dig around them. Those ugly little critters have learned not to dig in the dogs yard cause the dogs will get them, terriers are great at that, so they dig along the fence line where the dogs cannot get them. We have tried the harpoon traps, the mole peanuts, the smoke bombs, nothing seems to work on those things!

Well Darn! I guess the only real way to get rid of them then is to get rid of the grub worms that they eat. You know we were talking about that last year, about spraying Milky Spore bacteria on the yard to kill the Japanese Beetle grubs. Did you ever get any of that stuff?
